Security policy

NVMeter reads from /dev/disk* and shells out to smartctl. Although it does not write to disks, please report security issues responsibly.

Reporting

Email security@nvmeter.app (placeholder) with subject [NVMeter security]. Include:

  • Affected version (swift run NVMeterApp --version or build SHA)
  • macOS version
  • Steps to reproduce
  • Impact assessment

Please do not open a public GitHub issue for security-relevant problems until we have shipped a fix.

Disclosure

We aim to confirm within 72 hours, ship a patch within 14 days, and credit you publicly unless you ask otherwise.

Out of scope

  • Issues caused by a tampered or non-upstream smartctl binary.
  • Permission prompts (the app requires user authorization to read raw disks).
  • Crashes from clearly-malformed external drivedb YAML files.
